Mt Rainier is a nice example -- but I've now been told (in rather firm terms, actually) that the bill, though having "National?Park" in its title, actually specifies that "national areas" could be nominated, thereby allowing those national forests and such. Seems really dumb to me, but then I don't work for the government. Scott Bryan ? Not to mention that they completely skipped our 5th national park, Mt. Rainier.? I wonder if it's because Mt. Rainier was on the Washington state quarter? ? Thanks for posting the whole?list, Scott. ? Meg who must be a curmudgeon, too -- the list smells of politics, not appropriateness _______________________________________________ Geysers mailing list Geysers at lists.wallawalla.edu -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
